TMZ has confirmed that R&B legend Ronnie Wilson, a founding member of The Gap Band and "Uncle" Charlie Wilson's older brother, is dead.
Ronnie's wife, Linda Boulware-Wilson, tells TMZ he died at 10:01 AM Tuesday at his home in Tulsa, OK. We're told he died peacefully and Linda was holding his hand as he took his last breath.
Linda says Ronnie suffered a stroke last week, and it put him into a semi-coma and he never recovered. We're told he suffered several strokes throughout the years.
Ronnie and his brothers, Charlie and Robert Wilson, formed The Gap Band back in the 1970s in Tulsa, OK and their music picked up the baton from huge acts like Stevie Wonder, George Clinton and Earth Wind & Fire.
Ronnie was 73.

Have an annoying itch? Scratching it will just make it worse. Instead, apply pressure directly in the middle of the area. This reduces the blood flow, causing it to go away instantly.

Silk Sonic, the super duo comprised of Bruno Mars and Anderson .Paak, has announced the release of their brand new single, “Smokin’ Out The Window.”
Set to drop on November 5, the upcoming track marks the third single off their debut album, An Evening With Silk Sonic, following “Skate” from July and “Leave the Door Open” from March. The pair teased the visual on social media but made sure to leave out the actual sound, making fans comment on how the two are always teasing them with releases.
An Evening With Silk Sonic was initially scheduled to release in 2022 but was moved earlier to November 12, 2021.
Finally..I'm so excited by this. The two singles so far have been outstanding! Great retro sound.

Police in northwest Wisconsin posted a photo on Facebook last week after a drunk guy apparently tried to set up his ice fishing shack on a lake that wasn't frozen yet.
Their Facebook post says temperatures had dipped down below freezing for a few nights in a row, and there was a little frost on the ground. But it wasn't nearly cold enough for the lake to freeze up.
The photo shows the guy's ice shack trailer still hitched to his truck. His truck and the trailer are both half-submerged in the water, and it looks like there's no ice at all, just water.
In the Facebook post, the cops said that they, quote, "love ice fishing as much as everyone" but they wanted to be clear that the ice is not ready yet.
The guy who did it is okay, but was arrested for drunk driving. It's not clear if they were able to salvage his ice shack, or his truck.
